Tether for new EduBot Controller

Let me know If you think this will work!!!

The new EduBot Controller has Analog inputs that you might wire a potentiometer to.

The Joysticks have potentiometers for the X and the Y axis.

Make an adaptor cable to connect a Joystick to the analog inputs of the Edubot ( be sure it will be long enough to act as a tether)

Write your program to use the the analog inputs as you normally would use the joystick inputs.
